Now that I'm thinking about it, I bet the real hold up on it before was wether or not a DE would fall to them and now that Miami went Jake Long then the chance of Gholston or Chris long being there at 5 is a lot better, especially if St. Louis goes Dorsey which KC must believe will happen.

Puts his value at #9 overall. My bet is that KC will go Long/Gholston at 5 and Otah at 17

I actually think theres a good change Oakland goes DE. Wildcard then is if STL takes Dorsey. I think KC may even be able to find a trade down suitor at 5. That would be crazy if they were able to pick up another second rounder.

I think getting #17 will allow the Chiefs to draft Matt Ryan at #5 and then possibly go OL with the second pick. They have three Round 3 picks, so they might even wait for OL until later.. but I definitely think Matt Ryan will go #5 to the Chiefs.

Chiefs will make some noise in this draft for sure with all those picks.

As for the Vikings, wow ... an 8-8 team takes quite a gamble to give up most of their draft (3 picks in the top 82) for 1 player. Stealing a page from the defending champs by stacking the front of the D! IMO they have quite a few holes that could ahve been filled with those picks and were not a team that was 1 player away from a deep play-off run like maybe a Titans, Bucs or Jags team could pull off to offer a guy the highest defensive contract in NFL history and give up the farm for ... anyone agree?

I gotta disagree with ya a little, I think it was quite a bit to give up, but they got an absolute beast and at 17 who were they gonna get? Maybe one of the top 5 Olinemen or Merling, this is a HUGE upgrade over who they would've gotten. Now they still have their 2nd, and I'll bet that will be the best Olineman on their board thats still available. Obviously everybody points to Minny needing a QB, but they like Jackson and seem to be sold on him. Allen will elevate their already very good D, so watch out for Minny. If AP stays healthy and Jackson can start to shrink his turnovers it's not out of the question for them to get 10 or 11 wins, w/ 2 of those beeing Detroit unfortunately.

Oh like EXACTLY how I drafted for them in the assault on everyone's moms?
